KNIPEX on Instagram: "Crimping ferrules made easy – here’s how! With the KNIPEX crimping pliers 97 78 180, you can crimp ferrules from 0.25 to 16 mm² with very little effort. Simply slide the ferrule onto the stripped conductor, close the pliers — and the connection is done. And if the line happens to be live, the VDE handles are tested up to 1000 V. Sounds easy?

science and technology on Instagram: "A wire rope loop may look simple, but when lives, loads, and heavy machinery are involved, precision is everything. Wire rope loop crimping is a critical process that ensures safe load handling across construction sites, shipping yards, cranes, elevators, and industrial lifting systems. Done correctly, it transforms loose steel strands into a secure, load-bearing termination that can withstand extreme tension without slipping or failing. The process starts b
